Favorite Movies with Tracy Bilen

Tracy Bilen, author of What She Left Behind, is the focus of the blog today. If you haven't already had the opportunity to add this to your TBR list, I suggest you do it straight away! Sara's story sounds terrifying, sad, and yet wholly intriguing.

“Don’t even think of leaving… I will find you,” he whispered. “Guaranteed.”

Sara and her mom have a plan to finally escape Sara’s abusive father. But when her mom doesn’t show up as expected, Sara’s terrified. Her father says that she’s on a business trip, but Sara knows he’s lying. Her mom is missing—and her dad had something to do with it.

With each day that passes, Sara’s more on edge. Her friends know that something’s wrong, but she won’t endanger anyone else with her secret. And with her dad growing increasingly violent, Sara must figure out what happened to her mom before it’s too late…for them both.

On a lighter note, for her post Tracy Bilen has decided to share with us her favorite movies! I honestly love seeing what the authors I love and I have in common. So without further ado, here is her list.
